About Us

My name is Jen Lowy and I am the proud owner of Colchester Pet Shop in Colchester, CT. My love of fish and all animals started when I was young helping out at my parents pet shop. I love writing about my passion and sharing it with you. Aquaculture is my huge passion and my mission is to inform everyone about its importance through my blogs. Aquaculture is the future!

Thanks for stopping by our website, my name is Jen and I am the lucky owner of this little gem located in the wonderful town of Colchester, CT. ​We opened at this location in October of 2011, and have been having fun helping people with their fish tanks ever since.

WHAT MAKES US QUALIFIED TO BE YOUR #1 SOURCE FOR AQUARIUMS AND SUPPLIES?

GOOD QUESTION!!

​LET ME EXPLAIN

MY PARENTS HAD A PET STORE FOR 29 YEARS NAMED MAGIC PET, IN WETHERSFIELD. I GREW UP THERE. WHEN THEY RETIRED, I REALIZED HOW MUCH I MISSED WORKING WITH FISH AND PEOPLE, SO I OPENED UP COLCHESTER PET! I ASKED MY PARENTS TO COME AND HELP ME, AND THEY SAID YES!

WE HAVE A REAL PASSION FOR FISH, AND IT SHOWS WHEN YOU WALK IN AND SEE OUR PRISTINE RIMLESS CORAL TANK WITH RADION LED LIGHTS.

WE HAVE HELPED MANY PEOPLE START AND HAVE GREAT SUCCESS WITH THEIR AQUARIUMS, LET US HELP YOU ACHIEVE YOUR AQUATIC DREAMS!
